Description
We are meticulously clean and organised so you won’t have to worry about dishes piling up with us. I like to start each day fresh with no overlap from the previous night. Every place we’ve lived in we treat it as if it’s our own, with care and mindfulness.
We have been married 6 years, together for 14. We got married on the Cook Islands and went travelling for 2 years during Covid. We went to places like Jordan, The Maldives, Sri Lanka, and Azerbaijan.
When we lived in Vietnam last year, we played badminton up to twice a week, I played football up to three times, hiked twice a month, and in between we would go to the gym.
Aly's passions are; cooking, DIY, interior design, and interacting with people. He’s outgoing, chatty, and loves learning about different cultures. He would often trek to the most rural of places and villages to experience village life and come back with many stories. He redesigned his parents' home (interior) and built our garden bench as well as our own bed frame and matching table.
While my current passion's are; hiking, surfing, and languages. I lived in London for 11 years and after work, I was a kickboxing instructor which I also competed in. In my downtime, I read books on mostly human behaviour. My favourite books are; EQ by J.Bariso and Non-violent communication by M. Rosenberg. I’m currently reading The Iliad by Homer.
I had a Yorkie and a Samoyed growing up which I took care of in terms of walking, loving, and feeding. Samoyeds are high in energy and require lots of love which I happily obliged. Whenever I visit my sister, I always ask to borrow her neighbour's cockapoo, frenchie, and bulldogs.
That’s us in a nutshell, if you have any questions, let me know.
We look forward to meeting you!
